B Bobplayer Member Mar 26, 2013 #1 Yesterday,I fried the 7805 on my n64 . Can i take an other 7805 Regulator to generate 5v from 11,1v or can i take 5v from an other regulator directly to the 5v line?

G gman Well-Known Member Apr 7, 2013 #4 This is a little late but whatever. You can just wire the 3.3v line to the 5v line. I've done this on a rev 8 and it worked fine.

vskid3 Well-Known Member Apr 7, 2013 #7 gman said: nothing. i ran the n64 entirely on 3.3v. Click to expand... Everything I know is a lie.
G gman Well-Known Member Apr 7, 2013 #8 Now we just need to get a screen running on 3.3v and we got a low voltage n64p!
Prog Not a Meme™ Staff member Apr 8, 2013 #9 Someone should test the amp draw and stability of a 3.3V N64.
